"I am your second aunt, you..." Cao Chunni covered her chest and said weakly.
"It's not mine. I don't have an aunt like you. If you can't come up with anything in exchange, then don't eat it." Qin Zijin interrupted her without any politeness.
Cao Chunni was so angry that she wanted to pounce on Qin Zijin and scratch him.
I just thought about how I was extorted for twenty-five last time. If I go up and beat him up again, the loss this time might be more than just twenty-five.
She was so angry that her heart, liver, spleen and stomach ached.
"Then I'll owe it to you for now and pay you back another day..." Cao Chunni said angrily when she saw that Qin Zijin was still looking at her with a smile and didn't seem moved at all.
"I'm sorry, it's a small business and we don't accept credit." Qin Zijin refused with confidence.
"You!" Cao Chunni was so angry that she was about to curse.
"Cao Chunni, I'm not as shameless as you. You want to eat meat but don't want to spend money. How can it be so cheap? Your family has occupied Tang Shen's house, and that's not enough. What? Now you want to bully them, right?" Miao Cuicui stood up directly.
She was not afraid of Cao Chunni at all, and her words did not give her any face at all.
"What's your business?" Cao Chunni glared at Miao Cuicui fiercely.
"Come on, if you really want to buy meat, then just honestly take the money and exchange it for food. If you don't want to buy it, then don't waste everyone's time here." Zhao Mantang looked at Cao Chunni dissatisfiedly.
Cao Chunni dared to be mean to other people, but she had no temper at all towards Zhao Mantang and just became a coward.
"I'll exchange my grain for 20 kilograms of rice and get me 4 kilograms of meat." Cao Chunni said with a dissatisfied look on her face.
"Six pounds of rice for one pound of meat." Qin Zijin looked at Cao Chunni with a smile and reminded her.
Cao Chunni scolded impatiently: "It's just a little bit short of that. What's wrong with you charging a little less? I..."
"It's not a big deal. After all, we have a grudge against each other. I'm being fair by not charging you more." Qin Zijin interrupted Cao Chunni again.
"Qin Zijin! Are you trying to make things difficult for me? How can human flesh be sold at such a high price? You are engaging in profiteering, which is a crime. I will report you!" Cao Chunni was immediately enraged.
"Okay, you are welcome to report me. Do you need me to give you some advice? But you must have done this kind of thing a lot, right?" Qin Zijin nodded very readily.
As soon as these words were spoken, many people in the village changed their expressions.
Many people were reported for speculation and profiteering back then. Now that Cao Chunni has made a fuss, and Qin Zijin has given some guidance, many people have begun to wonder whether it was Cao Chunni who reported them in the first place.
Cao Chunni's face changed. Feeling everyone's unfriendly gazes, she didn't dare to stay any longer and turned around and ran away.
Not long after Cao Chunni left, Tang Wei came over with a simple smile on his face, but when his eyes fell on Qin Zijin, there was a hint of lust in them.
Qin Zijin naturally did not miss his gaze, but just looked at him coldly.
"Tang Shen, sister-in-law, I'm here to buy meat. I brought 24 kilograms of rice and want to exchange it for 4 kilograms of meat." Tang Wei honestly carried a rice bag and looked at the half-full bag. It seemed to be quite enough.
"Village chief, please help check it out. I'm afraid they will accuse me of framing their family again." Qin Zijin ignored Tang Wei and looked at Zhao Mantang who was standing beside him.
Zhao Mantang nodded, took the rice bag from Tang Wei, opened it, and immediately his face darkened: "Tang Wei, your family is too bullying, isn't it?"
There were indeed more than 20 kilograms of rice in the rice bag, but the rice was stale, moldy and black, and could not be eaten.
I don’t know where Tang Wei got the rice from. Isn’t he just trying to disgust people?
Fortunately, it was Zhao Mantang who saw it personally. He was well-known for his fairness in the village, so it was impossible for him to have wrongly accused Tang Wei and the others.
Tang Wei was also stunned when he heard this, and looked at Zhao Mantang with a puzzled look on his face: "Village Chief, what do you mean? How did I bully others?"
"Take a look at what you brought." Zhao Mantang threw the bag of rice in his hand directly to Tang Wei's feet.
Tang Wei bent down in confusion, opened the rice bag, and his expression changed when he saw what was inside.
Obviously, he didn't know that the rice bag contained stale rice.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so calm in handing it over to Zhao Mantang for inspection.
"This, village chief, I, I..." He was a little embarrassed for a moment.
The rice was given to him by Cao Chunni, and he didn't think much about it, so he took it and came over to exchange it for meat.
I never thought that my own mother would betray her son.
At this moment, everyone looked at him with something strange in their eyes, full of contempt.
Tang Wei wished there was a pit in front of him that he could crawl into.
Qin Zijin looked at him with a half-smile, "Your family is really sincere. I will sell my meat to anyone except you. No matter how much money you offer, I won't sell it to you. Go back."
Tang Wei was very embarrassed and had no time to talk to Qin Zijin. He left in shame carrying the half bag of stale rice.
"Tsk tsk, this Cao Chunni is really something, she even betrayed her own son."
"Tang Aimin's family are all worthless. They will get their comeuppance sooner or later."
"It's just a pity for Tang Shen. His parents are dead, and he can't keep his house. Even his land has been occupied by that family."
"Who says it's not true? But they're living a good life now, and sooner or later they'll be better off than Tang Aimin and his family."
A group of people stood there, watching Tang Wei leave and talking in low voices.
The butcher had already slaughtered the pig. He smiled and cut off 30 kilograms of meat before coming over to ask Qin Zijin, "The pig is already slaughtered. Do you want me to divide the meat among you?"
"Thank you for your help." Qin Zijin said politely.
"Everyone, please line up, pay the money and food first, and then go to get the meat." Qin Zijin clapped his hands and greeted the villagers who came to buy meat.
Everyone lined up obediently to pay money and grain.
Qin Zijin didn't do it himself and asked Zhao Mantang for help. No one dared to deceive Zhao Mantang, and no one dared to be less in terms of money and food.
After paying, everyone lined up to get the meat.
The butcher cut with every stroke of the knife, neither more nor less, with incredible precision.
The meat was soon divided.
Including what the butcher wanted, a total of 268 kilograms of meat were removed.
The income was a full 180 yuan, and there was a lot of other food.
There are still more than 200 kilograms of meat left, which can be taken to the town to sell again, and the estimated income can be around 200 yuan.
"Let's celebrate by having a big dinner tonight and invite my sister-in-law and Brother Daniu to come and eat with us." Qin Zijin was counting the money and was in a very good mood.
I am one step closer to getting rich. I believe it won’t be long before I leave the small mountain village and return to the city.
